Feeling stuck seeing the world in one way due to anxiety, stress, or fear? This is the guide for you.

Aaron Bethune is an entrepreneur and consultant who has worked with individuals, organizations, and companies such as Showtime, Spotify, MTV, The Recording Academy, FIS Word Ski Championships, and more. Writing from his experiences with life, anxiety, and panic attacks, he explains how our own and the world’s perspectives affect us and our goals.

Each lesson in Reality and the Positive Power of Perspective comes with an action plan to help you become your best self. Take control back of your life: whether it be in the personal or business sphere.

Learn how to:

• stop anxiety, judgement, and other emotions from affecting you as much;

• understand others and yourself;

• learn how to improve yourself step by step;

• the different angles of perspective, and how much we can do about them;

and more.

How you feel right now and where you are in life is directly related to the perspective you have of your Personal Reality. Life isn't happening to you. You are creating it.

At any given moment, you can change your perspective and create a new reality.

If we circle an object and see it from different points of view, our position has changed. However, neither the object nor ourselves have changed. And if two people are standing side by side, one joyfully celebrating a birthday and the other having just lost a grandfather, the weather may be beautiful, but the perspective the two have of the day is likely very different. So it is our internal thoughts that determine how we perceive what we experience. If we can change our thoughts, we can change our perspectives and consequently our experiences.

Our thoughts shape our experience of life, and as creators in all that we do, we can create a different experience, a new reality, and we can do it immediately. This book shows you how.

Using the lens of the "Three Realities" (Personal Reality, Shared Reality, and Collective Reality), you will discover ways to change your life right now.

Reality and the Positive Power of Perspective will help you stop shaping your life around your anxiety and instead shape your life in the way you want it to be.

"Aaron Bethune has written a delightful and generous book. Read, reflect, revitalize."

- Marty Neumeier, author of Metaskills, The Brand Gap, zag

"This book shows you a method of being. It should be required reading at schools."

- Chief Dana Tizya-Tramm

"Perspective plays a big role in how you experience life and the reality you live. Often, before you can live differently, you must first see differently. Some books have the power to change how you see the world - this is one of them."

- Dez Dickerson of Prince and the Revolution

“When I began reading RATPPOP I figured, “I know all about this stuff.” Well, turns out, I didn’t, and the additions the book made to my already-passionate-positive-energetic mindset were welcome. The perspectives of personal, shared, and collective reality generated empowering thoughts. The concept of taking action immediately is obvious, but oh-so-elusive in our comfort zone. I’ve written my Magic List and merely seeing it on a page is already generating excitement about seeing it come to fruition. The reminder of gut-instinct is important in so many ways.

Aaron’s book came to me on a morning when reading it was the best thing I could have hoped for. A welcome chapter in Life’s book of self-help.”

–Roger Fisher, Original Member of Heart and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductee

“This book on the positive power of perspective is a wonderful read and workbook with action exercises and delightful illustrations throughout. Aaron lets the reader see how perception is the key to all experiences, and the Three Realities help us choose how we live our lives! His life coaching experience leads us to take action on practicing mindfulness and living in the moment of each experience. As he writes, ‘Life isn’t happening to you. You are creating it’. Everyone needs this book!”

–Starlyn Cooper, A.S., B.S, M.Ed, CCRC Master Resiliency Trainer for the United States Air Force

“Reality and The Positive Power of Perspective works to remind me to be mindful of zooming out enough to see my life in perspective. Reflecting upon the Personal, Collective and Shared realities that I can perceive from where I am.”

–Bob Guido, Composer & Producer

“What I love most about RATPPOP is that while the topic of perceiving one's own reality can be a deep or even heavy one, Aaron Bethune makes it an enjoyable, casual conversation. With short, but meaningful chapters and wonderfully engaging illustrations along the way, RATPPOP leaves you with plenty to not only think about, but specific steps and suggestions on how create and enjoy your own personal reality at a more intentional and fulfilling level.”

–Ryan Stanley, Professional Life Coach

“For those who look at life from their own perspective and struggle to achieve their goals - this is the book that will alter perspective… and open the door to achievement.”

–Cathleen McMahon, Chief Executive Office of Mission Management Group

"After a year like 2020, everyone needs to read Reality and The Positive Power of Perspective. The book clearly outlines how we can, as human beings, be present and create the best possible world around us. Aaron has done a masterful job mixing theory and practice to achieve your personal best."

–Joel Carben, Founder of IdealSeat & President of Carben Ventures
